31/10/2023. Continuation of the implementation of the Culture National Project to create model libraries in Karelia
As part of the implementation of the Culture National Project in 2024, two more libraries will become model libraries in Karelia: the Central Library of the Segezha District and the Borovoy Rural Library of the Kalevala District. For modernization, the central library will receive 15 million roubles from the federal and regional budgets, and the rural library – 8 million roubles.
The transformation of libraries is being carried out according to a single model standard, which includes connecting high-speed Internet, purchasing new books and modern multimedia equipment, providing access to modern electronic resources, updating interiors that reflect the local colour. Libraries will create comfortable conditions for people of all ages.
From 2019 to 2023 in 5 years of successful implementation of the national project in Karelia, 9 new generation libraries have already been created, for which 65 million roubles have been raised. Library staff put a lot of effort and creative ideas into winning the application competition. Employees of the regional project office, which is organized on the basis of the National Library of Karelia, are directly involved in preparing the package of documents for the competition.
Congratulations to the winners!
